There is a wide variety of flora and fauna to be observed in Cania Gorge National Park. More than 150 plant species grow in the brigalow forest, eucalypt and cypress pine woodlands, dry rainforest and grassland.

In excess of 90 species of birds have been recorded in the park. Brush-tailed rock-wallabies are often seen by observant walkers.

The landscape features sandstone cliffs and narrow gorges where light plays at the texture and colour at certain times of the day. Aboriginal rock art is preserved as an important part of Australia's cultural heritage.
